I don't know, but here is a chart for US measure:
3teaspoons = 1 Tablespoon = 1/2 liquid oz. = approximately 15 ml.
4 Tablespoons = 1/4 cup = 2 liquid oz 
1 cup = approximately 240 ml.
4 cups = 1 quart = 32 liquid oz.
4 quarts = 1 gallon = 128 liquid oz.

I have known most of my life that an imperial gallon was larger than a US
gallon, but this is the first I have heard about the teaspoons and
Tablespoons.
